How to find the most effective C-UAS?
Diverse needs from various users
Even though the systems are called by the single word "C-UAS", its role and effectiveness widely varies based on user's diverse needs. What needs should we look at to build a reliable system?
We have found that the equipment utilized for C-UAS has its own unique features. So what does an "optimal system" look like?
Depending on the environment and specific area the user wants to deploy the system, the requirements will differ. We need more info on their actual needs.
Yes! Then, let's interview some users and gather
specific needs!
Note: The users below are model cases integrating general market requirements, not real customers.
Model cases of users
The optimal system varies depending on users, operations and locations!
C-UAS is expected to be popularized and utilized by a variety of users, but the optimal system configuration differs depending on the user's characteristics. By selecting the optimal equipment and method for each user, a highly reliable system can be made.
It is very clear that needs from users highly varies depending on the industry, application and environment when we laid out their requirements in this way.
That's true. To build the best system, we also must see user needs that we need to be aware of. It is important to optimize the system according to each user.
Installation plans
For developing an effective C-UAS system, it is necessary to create an optimal installation plan that matches the requirements of that certain area or type of threats. When creating installation plans, what kind of points do we need to be aware of?
From the interviews, we found that the characteristics and functions are highly dependent to the user's operating environment. I'll look deeper into essential points to make a proposable installation plan.
Indeed. There are diverse requirements to C-UAS and it cannot be explained in the single word "C-UAS"!
Let's see what kind of points we need to take care of based on the user interview.
An example of checkpoints to make installation plans
If countermeasure against malicious drones is necessary, further steps are required.
If countermeasure for mitigation is necessary, it is required to consider about minimizing collateral damages and areas for the mitigation. For safe installation and operation of C-UAS, preparation such as well-structured installation plans based on actual environment and readiness to meet legal requirements is necessary.
For safe and effective operation of C-UAS system, there are many points which we need to take care of other than selection of equipment.
You're right. We can build a more reliable system by investigating the surrounding environments, legal requirements and so on.
